We are continuing the final stages of our essential maintenance to Ferriby Road Bridge this week. This is to replace the expansion joints in the carriageway on the Southbound side of the Bridge (Hessle to Barton).

To facilitate this work there will be lane closures in place Southbound. This will be happening on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday 11-13th January between the hours of 7pm to 6am each day (meaning these works will finish early Sunday morning). 

Please note that you will still be able to cross the Bridge with or without a HumberTag, however, you will need to follow the signage and possibly pay online (www.humbertag.com).

Also, between Friday 12th January and Sunday 14th January we will be maintaining  some expansion joints on the Bridge itself. There will be a lane closure northbound in place at the South end of the bridge. During this time, for the protection of the public, we will be closing the West footpath and opening the East footpath instead.

Drivers are urged to allow extra time for their journeys in order to minimise any potential disruptions.

Works of this nature are weather dependent, meaning that they may need to be cancelled and rescheduled at short notice. Should this occur, more information will be provided on our social media channels as soon as it becomes available.

As the festive season draws near, please make a note of the opening hours for our Customer Service team. 

Christmas

Our offices will be closed and our Customer Service team is unavailable on Christmas Day and Boxing Day. This gives our team the time to celebrate Christmas with their loved ones.

This week we will be moving into the final stages of our essential maintenance to Ferriby Road Bridge. This is to replace the expansion joints in the carriageway – which thankfully is not something which has to be done often and will not need doing again for many years!

From Monday 4th December to Sunday 10th December the tag lane will be closed northbound daily between the hours of 7pm to 6am. There will also be traffic management in place with all traffic filtered through the toll booths. Similar works on the southbound side of the Bridge are currently planned for the w/c 11th December, and more information will be provided nearer the time.

Please note that you will still be able to cross the Bridge, however, you will need to follow all traffic management and signage. HumberTag customers can still use the Toll Booths.

Drivers are urged to allow extra time for their journeys in order to minimise any potential disruptions.

Since November 2015, the Humber Bridge has operated a hybrid toll collection system; this consists of one open road toll lane and three staffed toll booth lanes in each direction, along with associated back-office systems located in the Bridge Office.

The Humber Bridge Board (HBB) are now looking to replace this system with a fully free flow toll collection system.
